Thought it would be good to post what we have bought and what we have our eyes on so people don't miss some hidden deals. There is a thread on the Steam forums for "Hidden Gems" that is worth looking at because there is a lot on sale for cheap that probably won't hit a daily deal.

I'd love to buy this but I already have a full time job. It looks amazing. So far I've bought Max Payne 3.

Never said I'd get the chance to play it. LOL

I'm sooo trying not to jump in on DCS: A-10C, could be the most expensive $16 game ever. I'm salivating for a Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog setup, TrackIR V, Saitek Pro Combat rudder pedals and to make it even more insane have you seen Helios software combined with a touch screen monitor (none of which I have)? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v15E1JZe9es&feature=channel&list=UL

will probably cave and get walking dead but might resist until christmas sale. skyrim was tempting at 50% but have so many rpgs to still play, including oblivion exp (only finished main game..same as also still installed morrowind).

caved and got a few more things:thief deadly shadows (Been eyeing it forever and hey $2.50!)dragon age ultimate edition (long on my wishlist, couldnt resist $7.50)walking dead (finally went for the 40% off that kept coming and going)alan wake bundle for $10

done for now with total of about $90 for 12 games. got my wishlist down to 10. gotta keep something for christmas sale!

had recently syndicate, mafia 2, saboteur, darkness 2, and necrovision for $50 from amazon. some got my gaming set for a while. $140 for a ton o' gaming vs 3 new games.

added a few more to the old backlog bin. BttFSideway $3.00Ys: Oath in Felghana $5.09DLC for Binding of Isaac and Frozen Synapse 2.75QUBE 3.74TW2 Velvet edition (there's a mod which apparently adds the expansion areas to the main game. sounds like fun) $10Walking Dead (would have waited for a better price but the reviews plus the new season made this too hard to pass up) $15

just a hair over $50 total (WA resident here)

I will probably stay out of the next few rounds though. getting a bit expensive with this and the recent Amazon sale.

only have a few items on the wishlist that I am really feeling like picking up, so that's a good sign for my wallet
